Which foreign language should I take senior year?

Hi I’m a junior in high school and I will soon have to choose my classes for next year. I don’t know what I should do for a foreign language.
At my school, we can take the first level of our chosen language over the course of 7th and 8th grade. So far, I have taken Spanish 1R (7/8), Spanish 2R (9), Spanish 3H (10), and College Spanish 200/201 H (11) which is a course accredited by the University of Albany. I also took Latin 1 and 2 in 9th and 10th grade but was unable to continue this year because it clashed with physics.
I know that many colleges prefer 4 consecutive years in the same language but the only class left in my school is AP Spanish which is typically extremely difficult for everyone who does not speak Spanish at home (which I don’t). Do you think it would be better to take Latin 3 (which I know I can do very well in) or AP spanish to complete the 4 straight years?

Thanks for your help!

https://www.albany.edu/undergraduate_bulletin/a_spn.html indicates that Albany SPN 200 and 201 are the second year college Spanish courses. https://www.albany.edu/admissions/check.php says that a 5 on AP Spanish is considered equivalent to SPN 200, so you have already completed college Spanish more advanced than AP Spanish, at least in theory. This should be considered equivalent to fourth or higher year of high school Spanish.

Since there is apparently no point in taking AP Spanish, you can take Latin 3 if you are interested in it.

Which languages are available?

Would you rather improve your Latin or begin learning something new?

Thank you!! I signed up for Latin 3 (which I’m pretty excited about)
